Toothbrushes

Maggie's Mommy · 01-31-2008, 07:20 AM

I have a toothbrush for my kids from PetSmart. It is a long handled brush with a large brush at one end and a tiny brush at the other. It works fine but they both need a new one. I trained them to come running into my bathroom before bed each night to get their teeth brushed. It is SO funny! I'll ask my Husband to video it!! I'm thinking of getting the triple brushe one. It has three brushes made into one at the head.

Any opinions on the brush??

Looks pretty cool. Better than the old kind that you stick on the end of your finger!

Did you get the Chicken flavored toothpaste?

They prefer the Peanut Butter flavored but anything will do!! I even brush their tongues so they don't have bad breath

How on earth did you train them to like getting their teeth brushed?
It takes two people to brush Bogie's. He loves the taste of the toothpaste, and the licking it off his teeth, but he does not love the experience.

So Patty, do each of the kids have their own toothbrush?

Cute pics you've been posting. But I really want to see the toothbrushing video. Bet its adorable!

Yes, they each have a separate toothbrush. I do this because of Rusty's Lip Fold Pyoderma and yeast he sometimes gets. I don't want to swap germs from the toothbrush. I also discourage them as much as possible from washing each other's mouths. They know when last call for potty time is at night. Whe we come in, I started running into my bathroom hollering "Who wants their teeth brushed". They LOVE excited voices. They do everything as one dog so when one came running the other followed. I tell them to sit and then they just sit there till I'm done. Rusty is usually first, then he watchs me brush Stickers teeth. Then I tell them "Get on your beds" and they run and plop on their doggie beds.
